During normal operation, thermal circuit breakers utilize a thermal sensing element (such as bimetal), which deflects when the temperature reaches a predetermined calibration level, causing the ...

Let’s face it, breadboarding can be frustrating, even for advanced electronics wizards. If you have an older board, you could be dealing with loose tie points left from large component legs, and power ...

Researchers have devised a novel circuit design that enables precise control of computing with magnetic waves -- with no electricity needed. The advance takes a step toward practical magnetic-based ...

On April 1—no joke—the Consumer Product Safety Commission’s troubling new standard for magnet sets was slated to go into effect. However, thanks to the efforts of the sole remaining distributor of ...

Single pole thermal-magnetic circuit breakers with tease-free, trip-free, press-to-reset snap action mechanism and special dual button manual release which avoids the danger of unintended ...

The layout of components in a switch mode power supply is a very important stage of the design process. A proper layout saves time during design verification and qualification phases. A power supply ...

This reshaping of magnet set regulation comes during an interesting time at CPSC. As previously reported, CPSC’s political makeup has recently shifted following CPSC’s February 9, 2017 announcement of ...

Siemens Infrastructure & Cities’ Low and Medium Voltage division has released the new type SDV7-MA distribution circuit breaker that provides a magnetic-actuator operator as an alternative to the ...
